Hampshire Cricket have announced several newcomers in the Club’s new Academy intake ahead of the forthcoming ECB Southern Premier League season.
Waterlooville’s Sonny Reynolds and all-rounder Tom South are the youngest of those to join the programme, alongside fellow U16s George Metzger (Basingstoke & North Hants), Poole’s Scott Currie, Fletcha Middleton, and U17 recruit Ben Huntley, from South Wilts.
The more senior group of Felix Organ, Tom Scriven, Chris Searle, Rory Hipwell, George Pardoe, Miles Kantolinna and Zac Organ return once again this season, after featuring for the side throughout the 2017 campaign.
Head of Player Development, Charlie Freeston said: “We’re pleased to bring a number of exciting young prospects into our Academy set-up for the coming season and they join a group of quality cricketers in Rory, George, Miles and Zac, who were all involved last year.
“They’ve all worked hard during this winter, including on our excellent February trip to Durban, and we’re looking forward to what we hope will be another positive season for us.”
The Academy's first set of fixtures see them take on Waterlooville in a pre-season warm-up at the Hampshire Hogs, before the Premier League programme begins at St. Cross Symondians, and follows with matches against Lymington, Basingstoke & North Hants, and Burridge during the opening weeks of the season.
The Hampshire Academy finished eighth in last year's Premier League, claiming five victories
